“When you dance, I wish you a wave o’ the sea, that you might ever do nothing but that.” ~ William Shakespeare
A beautifully real & oh-so-effortlessly elegant wedding to share today. It was the Tokyo finale of a story which started with an Hawaiian wedding first in July. Now it was time for the Japanese celebration with treasured friends & family from around the world. And a very fabulous one it was. Completely double the fun. Starring a stunningly gorgeous ballerina bride & her dashing groom. It was such a joy to be part of this dance-inspired affair. From the darling details, those dresses, the Louboutins, the Tom Ford suit, that BELT, seeing them together…sigh…that bouquet, a breathless first dance (that left us speechless after the rehearsal, then mesmerized for the main event), an amazing DVD, the Photo Booth, moving, emotional tributes & speeches, a groom & his selfie, and simply over-flowing love. There was the iconic Tokyo skyline nearby with the stellar team at TAC on hand to make it spectacular & seamless, with a tremendous buffet & even a casino. And there were those adorable playing cards… Sharing the day together in photos, moments, the big & small while having some time with just the 2 of them to inhale it all, was something very special. And an honor to be part of. We so loved documenting this story. If there were ever two people meant to dance through life together, well, it’s them…and now on with the show…
